Summary

In this weeks episode I am joined by Rising Woman founder Sheleana Aiyana. She is a spiritual psychologist who focuses on conscious relationship, shadow work, breath work and tantric practice. She had grown her community to over 1.6 million and if you follow her account you know why people love her work. Her writings hit deep. Her profound transformation from severe early childhood abuse to healing, will leave you feeling so inspired. Here is my favorite post of hers from last week, " Life isn't trying to break you down, it's trying to break you open."

0:07.5	Hey, this is Alexis Haines and welcome to Recovering from Reality,
0:11.6	where I illuminate the messy and magical path of coming home to yourself.
0:16.1	Whether you're on the road to recovery, seeking self-care techniques for surviving the
0:20.5	capitalist machine, or just need a moment to remember that you're not alone in your loneliness,

0:52.1	for you and that could actually cause you to retreat from the work altogether.
0:56.7	So what you want is to go into some of those memories and that pain and that shame that you're

1:40.7	love to hear from you. I don't know if you guys are in the Facebook group or if you feel comfortable
1:48.2	DMing me or you're joining our weekly live sober Zoom calls, where you're in the life reset course.
1:57.5	I would love to hear what is going on with you guys and where you guys are at. I know that for
